Reality TV personality Kim Kardashian has graduated from law school after six years, dedicating her academic achievement to her late father, Robert Kardashian Sr, who was a lawyer.

Kardashian Sr. died in 2003. He was part of O.J. Simpson's legal team in 1994 during O.J.'s publicised murder trial.
For their mother's graduation ceremony, Kim's kids wore suits and looked like lawyers to pay homage to their grandfather.
Earlier this year, Simpson's estate denied Kim the opportunity to buy a bible that her father had gifted to Simpson. The bible is made special by a message Kim's father wrote for the former National Football League star.
'O.J., this book will help,' the note reads. 'God loves, and he will speak to you with his words. Read this book every day. God has a definite plan for your life. You are his child, and he will use you again. I love you and God loves you.'
Kim's offer was reportedly rejected because, according to OJ's estate executor Malcolm LaVergne, obtaining the proper paperwork to sell the item outside the auction would cost around the same amount in legal fees.
'The amount is why I had no choice, because why would I spend $15 000 (about R270 000) of estate money – why would I spend $15 000 in attorney's fees – to sell it to Kim for $15 000,' LaVergne is quoted as saying in The Mirror.

Kim in court
Kim told a Paris court on Tuesday she feared she was going to be killed by masked men who robbed her at gunpoint of millions of dollars of jewellery during the French capital's fashion week.
Ten suspects have been on trial since late April over the armed robbery in 2016, which saw jewellery worth some $10 million stolen from the reality TV star and influencer.
'I'm Kim Kardashian and I just want to thank everyone, especially the French authorities, for allowing me to testify today and tell my truth,' she told the packed court as she began giving evidence, wearing a black suit.
The trial has attracted huge media attention, with close to 500 reporters accredited. Crowds flocked around the courthouse on Paris's historic Île de la Cité, with fans hoping for a glimpse of the celebrity.
'I came to Paris for Fashion Week and Paris is always a place I love so much,' Kardashian said as she gave the court her account of the night of 2-3 October, 2016 when she was robbed while staying at an exclusive, discreet hotel in central Paris.

P4G Mixed Tournament extra special for Richard and Kim Woolrich

FINE FORM Richard Woolrich is all focus as his wife Kim returns a shot to their opponents GP and Lena-Lisa Bester in the finals of this past weekend's Mixed tournament in Bree Street. Picture: Keith Lyle/Cape Town Sport Photography. The event hosted athletes rated between 2 and 5 on the PlayTomic App - allowing lower-ranked players to level up and compete against more skilled opponents. This past weekend's show was not only the first mixed event at Padel4Good's new home since relocating from Paarden Eiland, but it was also the first time the brand would cast a wider net in terms of skill level. Competing at the high-end Racket+Ball Club in Bree Street, the couple secured their very first P4G title together when they overcame the dangerous duo of GP & Lena-Lisa Bester in the final of the competition that catered for 32 players registered on the PlayTomic App. The latest Padel4Good tournament in Cape Town was extra special for Richard and Kim Woolrich, who were crowned the first P4G mixed champions of 2025! Building a Legacy on the Padel Courts: Kim and Richard's Inspiring Journey with Padel4Good 'Mixed tournaments are great as you get exposed to a higher level, and the rallies are amazing. This event was also an opportunity for my husband and I to compete together in a sport we love,' said Kim Woolrich, who thrives off competitive moments. 'It was a great event with a great level of Padel. It feels extraordinary to win with my husband,' said Kim with a chuckle. Kim and Richard are slowly building a fearsome reputation on Padel courts across the Mother City, and by the looks of things, they're not slowing down. 'We have met so many amazing people through Padel. It's such a fun game, and I can feel that I am improving. My husband and I have played a few Padel4Good tournaments, and aside from the vibe, we love supporting such a great cause. "We also won the Africa Padel Mixed League,' added Kim, who also has three first-division ladies league titles to her name. Kim and Richard are playing the All Stars Mixed League at the Virgin Active Padel Centre in Paarden Eiland. Richard shares Kim's sentiments and is particularly proud of competing at such a high level with his wife. 'What a lekker way to spend a Friday date night with my wife! I have played a couple of the Padel4Good tournaments but I never made it into the finals. It was very cool to win in a strong mixed tournament with my wife. "And if I am not mistaken, I think we were the only husband and wife combo,' said Richard, who is a former Epicentre first-division men's winner. Aside from providing a platform to compete in one of the fastest-growing sports in the world, Padel4Good also aims to help women and children across the Western Cape. With the help of sponsors, ticket sales, and support from players, the non-profit organization works hand in hand with various brands to assist women and children exposed to and affected by gender-based violence, abuse, poverty, and hunger. 'Supporting a charity and combining it with what we love and get excited about every day is a no-brainer! We will be back at the next tournament. I want to thank everyone who dedicated their time to making this happen and finding a very clever way of giving back,' added Richard. Padel4Good returns on June 27th.

Wild celebrations in Paris after PSG's Champions League win

PARIS - Thousands of Paris Saint-Germain supporters took to the streets of the French capital on Saturday to celebrate their club's victory in the Champions League final, but nearly 300 arrests were made after some clashes with police. The majority of fans celebrated peacefully, but Paris police said scuffles broke out near the city's Champs-Elysees avenue and PSG's Parc des Princes stadium, where 48,000 had watched the 5-0 win against Inter Milan in Munich on big screens. Most of the nearly 300 people detained were suspected of possessing fireworks and causing disorder, Paris police said. AFP journalists saw police use a water cannon to stop a crowd reaching the Arc de Triomphe. "Troublemakers on the Champs-Elysees were looking to create incidents and repeatedly came into contact with police by throwing large fireworks and other objects," police said in a statement. Outside Paris, police said a car careered into fans celebrating PSG's win in Grenoble in southeastern France, leaving four people injured, two of them seriously. All of those hurt were from the same family, police said. The driver handed himself in to the police and was placed under arrest. A source close to the investigation said it was believed the driver had not acted intentionally. AFP | Thibaud MORITZ In Paris, most fans showed their joy by singing and dancing in the streets, with cars sounding their horns, after their team won the biggest prize in European club football for the first time in their history. One 20-year-old PSG supporter, Clement, said: "It's so good and so deserved! We have a song that talks about our struggles and it hasn't always been easy. "But we got our faith back this year with a team without stars. They're 11 guys who play for each other." French President Emmanuel Macron's office said he would host the victorious players on Sunday to congratulate them. In a separate message on X, Macron hailed a "day of glory for PSG". "Bravo, we are all proud," he wrote. "Paris is the capital of Europe tonight." Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo hailed it as a "historic" win. The PSG team will hold a victory parade on the Champs-Elysees on Sunday when tens of thousands of supporters are expected to gather to get a glimpse of their returning heroes.

A Parisian classic with South African soul in Stellenbosch: Mill St Bistro's 'L'Entrecôte Experience'

The L'Entrecôte Experience at Mill St Bistro, showcases Michelin-starred chef Phil Carmichael tribute to South African produce in a homage to French cuisine. It's not often that a plate of steak and chips lingers in your mind long after the meal—but then again, not every plate comes from Mill St Bistro in Stellenbosch. Michelin-starred chef Phil Carmichael's latest addition to the menu, the 'MSB L'Entrecôte Experience', is more than just a nod to a French classic. It's a carefully considered tribute to excellent South African produce, traditional technique, and good, honest generosity—all at a surprisingly accessible R350 per person. The experience starts with a crisp green salad lightly dressed with a fynbos and honey vinaigrette—a subtle introduction before the main event. What follows is a flame-seared grass-fed rump of beef, cooked over woodfire for that unmistakable smokiness. It arrives sliced, tender, and perfectly seasoned, accompanied by a velvety mushroom café au lait sauce and a generous pile of bottomless shoestring fries. Yes, bottomless. But what makes it even better is that the steak is served twice. Just when you think it's over, the second round arrives—ensuring you truly get to savour the moment.
